About the role

Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom LLP seeks a Senior Paralegal for its Chicago or Houston offices (hybrid). The role supports advanced litigation tasks with minimal supervision, mentoring junior staff, and ensuring high-quality filings across federal and state courts. The candidate will manage discovery, depositions, and case files, use Relativity and other tools, and coordinate with partners and teams to meet deadlines and maintain confidentiality in a fast-paced environment.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
